Justin du Coer apologized to Lewis Carroll and posted this today:

Twas Christmas, and the panicked droves
The mallstore's fierce parking would brave:
For sacking of the treasure-troves,
Receipts of gift to save.

"Beware the Shopping Cart, my son!
The open maw, the wheels that catch!
Beware the Store Cashier, who at
You credit card will snatch!"

[...]

Go to his journal and read the rest of it.

Thanks for the link. Good to know that folks liked it. The first line's been floating around in my head for three days; the only way to exorcise it was to work the whole thing through...

You're welcome -- when I saw it, I had two reactions simultaneously: "Gee, a bunch of my other friends need to see this," and, "Oh boy, this needs wider distribution in general." Both led to the same course of action.
